30 Sacred Masterworks - for upper voice choir

30 Sacred Masterworks presents a wealth of sacred repertoire for upper voice accompanied and unaccompanied choirs. This compilation is a varied selection of work from the 15th Century through to the 21st Century, encompassing the languages of Latin, German and English. From Beethoven, Brahms, Britton, and many other composers, there are a variety of sacred music styles to choose in order to create the perfect choral concert.

Many of the pieces collected in this volume are published here for the first time, or have not enjoyed the same exposure as much as the mixed voice repertoire. It is an invaluable resource both for upper voice choirs seeking new, and inspiring repertoire as well as for mixed voice choirs who want to showcase the talent of their female singers.

The volume builds on the success of Faber 's Choral Programme Series from which some of the pieces have been drawn. It encompasses many eras and offers both accompanied and unaccompanied piecesand forms a vibrant and versatile collection suitable for a variety of services and concerts through the year.
